Chapter 421: Chapter 421: Battle Against the Ghostly Old Woman (Second Update)

Upon hearing this, the witch was taken aback, then burst into uproarious laughter.

That laugh, eerie and mournful, was the most grating laughter Chen Feng had ever heard.

It wasn’t so much a laugh as it was more unpleasant than crying.

Not just for Chen Feng, even Ma Qi, who was in league with the witch, couldn’t bear it, covering her ears with her hands.

Had it not been necessary to let the witch deal with Chen Feng, she would’ve slapped her long ago.

"You should fight if you want to fight, what’s with this ghastly laughing? Even if you need to laugh, can’t it be pleasant to hear? It’s as unbearable as the wailing of a ghost."

After a bout of loud laughter, the witch turned her gaze back to Chen Feng, her face full of disdain, and said, "Boy, I’ve cultivated here in Chaotic Tomb Ridge for over forty years, connected to the Heavenly Gods above and controlling fierce spirits below. I’ve seen all manner of lost souls and strange ghosts, but never have I encountered someone with as much gall as you! You’re still wet behind the ears, yet you think you can smash my place of practice? You don’t seem to realize how lightweight you are!"

"Old hag, to demolish this dump, I don’t think I’ll need to exert much effort,"

Chen Feng said indifferently.

Chen Feng had no courtesy for the old witch.

Because this witch was up to no good; for the sake of money, she was willing to cast spells to harm people. For such individuals, Chen Feng always preferred to rid them swiftly and without mercy.

"Boy, are you deliberately trying to infuriate me? Well then, ’Heaven has a road, yet you choose not to walk it; Hell has no gate, yet you come barging in.’ Today, since you’ve seen what you shouldn’t have, don’t blame me for not letting you leave!"

As the witch spoke, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she immediately muttered an incantation.

Instantly, thick clouds of black mist emanated from her body, swirling around her!

At this moment, the witch appeared less human, like a vengeful ghost from Hell itself.

And this black mist was no ordinary thing—it was the intensely cold and supremely Yin Pure Yin Energy!

This Pure Yin Energy was tens of times more sinister than the Yin Energy surrounding Zhou Yuying, almost akin to that within the small coffin.

Had Zhou Yuying been enveloped by this Yin Energy, she would have long departed from the human world.

What intrigued Chen Feng was that the witch, to some extent, was still a living being. How could she manipulate so much Yin Energy?

Could it be that she was no longer human?

As large amounts of the black Yin Energy appeared, the temperature inside the mud-brick house plummeted.

This caused Ma Qi, who was already dressed thinly, to shiver uncontrollably, her lips turning slightly purple from the cold.

She hurriedly took a few steps toward the door, distancing herself from the witch, which made things somewhat more bearable.

"Boy, I have cultivated here for many years, it has been a long time since I’ve killed. Since you’ve presented yourself today, let’s use your fresh blood to break my fast!"

The witch gave a sinister smile, her withered palm extended, controlling a wisp of Yin Energy while pronouncing a spell.

Instantly, the Yin Energy transformed into a black arrow.

With a wave of her hand, the witch sent the black arrow flying towards Chen Feng with incredible speed, impossible for an ordinary person to dodge.

Moreover, the black arrow, being condensed from Yin Energy, could devour and dissolve one’s Yang Qi the moment it struck.

A person, especially a normal person, once stripped of their Yang Qi, would only have death awaiting them!

Watching the black arrow flying towards him, Chen Feng stood there unperturbed, as calm as ever without moving an inch.

Seeing this, a mocking and scornful look crossed the witch’s eyes.

She would have never imagined Chen Feng standing still without even attempting to dodge. Had Chen Feng moved quickly, he might have had a sliver of a chance to live, but standing still would undoubtedly lead to certain death!

Thinking of this, the witch’s lips curled into a sinister smile, ready to collect Chen Feng’s corpse!

As the black arrow was about to strike Chen Feng.

However, just when the arrow was less than ten centimeters away from Chen Feng’s head.

Chen Feng’s lips slightly curled, and his spirit moved.

The next moment, an earth-yellow True Qi Protection Shield suddenly appeared in front of Chen Feng.

The black arrow hit the protection shield squarely and was promptly deflected, turning back into black Yin Energy.

This black Yin Energy attempted to fly back to the witch’s side.

But at that moment, a strong suction force burst forth from Chen Feng’s chest.

In an instant, all that Yin Energy was absorbed into Chen Feng’s chest.

This left Chen Feng slightly stunned; he of course knew where that suction force came from—it was the Tianqi Holy Pearl hidden in his chest.

Because right after the Yin Energy was absorbed into his chest, it was all consumed by the Tianqi Holy Pearl.

This mildly surprised Chen Feng.

He hadn’t expected that the Tianqi Holy Pearl could even absorb Yin Energy.

Wasn’t it supposed to absorb only True Qi?

Furthermore, if the Tianqi Holy Pearl could absorb Yin Energy, why didn’t it absorb the Yin Energy surrounding Zhou Yuying when they were at the Mu Family villa?

This puzzled Chen Feng greatly, and it seemed he would have to wait until he got back to ask the old Taoist.

The witch herself was completely stunned, though unlike Chen Feng, she hadn’t noticed the scene of the Yin Energy being absorbed by the Tianqi Holy Pearl.

The reason she was astounded was because of the True Qi Protection Shield that had appeared suddenly in front of Chen Feng!

Her eyes bulged as she looked at Chen Feng, her mouth hanging open for a long time before she exclaimed in shock, "You’re actually an Ancient Martial Cultivator!"

"Old witch, you’re quite perceptive, aren’t you!" Chen Feng put away his thoughts, looked at the witch, and said with a faint smile.

"Hmph, I really underestimated you. But, even if you are an Ancient Martial Cultivator, how does it matter? You’ve entered my domain, and today you won’t escape death!" The witch snorted coldly with a grim expression.

"We’ll see if you really have the ability to make that happen!" Chen Feng said indifferently.

"Brat, take this!" The witch spoke, her right palm turning into a claw, carrying a large amount of Yin Energy as she pounced directly at Chen Feng.

Seeing this, Chen Feng narrowed his eyes and with a thought, he activated the Five Elements Reincarnation Technique, calling forth Earth Element True Qi.

Compared to Water Element True Qi, Earth Element True Qi was clearly more appropriate for battle, while Water Element True Qi was excellent for healing. But when it came to fighting, its lethality couldn’t compare with Earth Element True Qi.

So without hesitation, Chen Feng used the Five Elements Reincarnation Technique to convert all his True Qi into Earth Element True Qi and called it forth.

At this time, the witch had already arrived right in front of Chen Feng and raised her claw to strike at him.

This claw, laden with a great amount of Yin Energy, would be fatal to an ordinary person if caught.

Even an Ancient Martial Cultivator wouldn’t dare to be careless in the face of it.
